How to remove new line when creating a CSV table from a SharePoint List

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by PP-08111920-0 4
 I need help to remove new lines as I am new to power automate.
 
I am copying a SharePoint List into a CSV table which is then placed into SharePoint folder. 
 
When I open the CSV file, a cell that has return/new lines in the original data, the data is being broken across multiple rows.  
 
This is my workflow that generates the table.  I can't find a solution to remove the newlines prior to the CSV file creation. Does anyone have a solution?

    Hey, You can try the solution/Expression below..
     
    join(split(item()?['Title'], decodeUriComponent('%0D%0A')), ' ')
     
    This function decodes the URI-encoded string %0D%0A, which represents a carriage return and line feed (\r\n). This is typically how line breaks are encoded in URLs or certain contexts. decodeUriComponent('%0D%0A') returns the actual line break characters.

    I tried your solution join(split(item()?['Title'], decodeUriComponent('%0D%0A')), ' ').  The flow is continuing to run when other the branches have completed.  I'm not sure why this is happening.
